This high-energy workout sizzles from the warm up on. American fitness champion Tsianina Joelson and a group of super-fit instructors lead an outdoor crowd of babes and hunks (including Baywatch star Michael Bergin) to tunes spun by DJ Skribble. The 55-minute workout includes a dancey 12-minute warm-up, followed by a 22-minute aerobic segment, which is mostly a highly choreographed routine combining dance and kickboxing for power, coordination, fat-burning, and toning. (Mobile hips, fast feet, and youthful knees are recommended for best results.) Next is a freestyle dance segment, where you dance your own way while you watch the participants take turns showing off their slick and sexy moves. The workout ends with a quieting 15-minute tai chi segment taught by Michael Corradino. Young intermediate and advanced exercisers who like today's dance moves will really enjoy this video. --Joan Price

1.0 out of 5 stars This video teaches you nothing!!!, May 20, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Daily Burn: Kick, Dance & Firm [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I mbought this tape b/c I was taking a fun funk aerobics class at my gym and was SO DISAPPOINTED!!! This video is hard to follow, goes too quicky and actually offers maybe 15 minutes of instruction....The biggest waste is a 15 segment which tells you to freestyle and jam to the DJ's music. While the music is fun and the people are really beautiful -- it is more like tuning into MTV's Spring Break than working out. Save your cash....

1.0 out of 5 stars Hard and unstructured, March 23, 2000

It was hard because the camera does a terrible job of focusing on the instructors. Instead, it goes all over the place and makes it hard to learn the moves. The "free-style" part was a joke: it was more of a competition to see who could out-do whom. Save your money.

2.0 out of 5 stars Fun for a while.. AND VERY easy (moves are hard though), May 7, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Daily Burn: Kick, Dance & Firm [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I bought this video because I enjoyed the GRIND videos (also by MTV) so I decided to try this one. Well.. it can be fun for a while,but soon gets VERY boring!

To me, this workout looks like maybe SPRING BREAK on MTV because there are alot of hunky-z dancing, and alot of freestyling, nothing like a structured exercise video.. maybe this is the point?

The moves themselves are pretty tough, and I have had this tape for a while, and they don't ever seem to get any less tricky..it is hard to remember what comes next!

I agree w/ Kelly at the end of the reviews, it is easy athletics wise. The Grind has more fun dancey videos like The Grind Dance Club Aerobics that are less tricky and more fun!

Personally, I don't think this video is the best out there for dance style videos. However , I am strickly hardcore videos now (the FIRM , Cathe Friedrich etc) so maybe I am bias...
